Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of glass bending and forming technology, specifically relating to a multifunctional curved glass forming equipment. Background Technology
[0002] Existing mainstream glass bending and forming equipment is mainly used for the preparation of curved glass with equal radius. When the length of the arc-changing mechanism remains unchanged, the arc-changing mechanism has a maximum central angle and a minimum radius after the maximum lifting and arc-changing. In practice, the central angle after the arc-changing mechanism is generally no more than 150 degrees. If the central angle exceeds 150 degrees, two difficulties will be encountered. One difficulty is the limitation of the arc-changing mechanism structure. The other difficulty is that the excessively large central angle will cause the center of gravity of the arc-changing mechanism to shift. Especially when it exceeds 180 degrees, the two ends of the arc-changing mechanism will buckle inward after being lifted into place. This will cause the arc-changing mechanism to be unable to flatten after the glass is formed, thus making it impossible to produce glass sheets or to perform subsequent glass bending. This is a major problem that seriously affects the continuity of glass bending.
[0003] When the central angle of the curved glass after the arc-changing mechanism does not exceed 150 degrees, the range of bending radii is relatively limited. The maximum and minimum bending radius are also limited. The larger the length of the arc-changing mechanism, the larger the minimum bending radius. It is not possible to bend large-radius, long-arc glass and small-radius glass on the same bending machine; typically, two machines must be purchased to solve this problem. To reduce customer procurement costs, a glass bending and forming machine capable of forming both large-radius and small-radius glass needs to be developed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multifunctional curved glass forming equipment that can flexibly adjust the arc length of the effective arc forming area in the arc-changing mechanism according to the arc length and radius of the target glass, thereby meeting the needs of forming both large-radius and small-radius glass with one set of equipment and reducing user costs.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a multifunctional curved glass forming equipment, comprising two lower arc-changing mechanisms and multiple roller tracks. The lower arc-changing mechanisms drive the multiple roller tracks to fit the forming roller track surface for glass bending forming. The lower arc-changing mechanism includes a chain plate unit and a connecting rod limiting mechanism. There are multiple chain plate units connected sequentially and alternately by pins. The connecting rod limiting mechanism includes a fixed connecting rod shaft, a lifting limiting component, and a connecting rod. There are multiple fixed connecting rod shafts, lifting limiting components, and connecting rods. Multiple fixed connecting rod shafts are arranged in different chain plate units, and multiple lifting limiting components are arranged in different chain plate units. The connecting rod limiting mechanism has multiple adjustable arc-changing strokes. Each lifting limiting component corresponds to one adjustable arc-changing stroke. The size of the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke is adjusted by raising and lowering the lifting limiting component. The forming roller surface includes an effective arc-forming area for bending glass into an arc and non-effective arc-forming areas located on both sides of the effective arc-forming area; the lower arc-changing mechanism includes a central arc-changing mechanism and side arc-changing mechanisms on both sides, the side arc-changing mechanisms being adjustable arc-changing mechanisms; the lifting limit component in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism is a limit ring, and it also includes multiple lifting sliders, the limit ring and the lifting sliders are correspondingly arranged on the same guide, the lifting sliders can slide along the length direction of the guide, and the limit rings can move along the length direction of the guide to adjust their positions, the connecting rod has at least one end with a round hole, and the two ends of the connecting rod are respectively connected to a fixed connecting rod shaft and a lifting slider; when the lower arc-changing mechanism is in a flattened state, the distance between the lifting slider and the limit ring is the adjustable arc-changing stroke; in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism, at least 3 of its side adjustable arc-changing strokes are independently adjustable arc-changing strokes adjusted by independent driving components, the independent driving components being used to adjust the position of the limit rings. The effective arc length of the forming roller surface can be adjusted by adjusting multiple independent adjustable arc strokes.
[0006] Its beneficial effects are as follows: This forming equipment has independently adjustable arc-changing strokes on both sides of the lower arc-changing mechanism. The position of the limiting ring is adjusted by an independent drive component, thereby adjusting the size of the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke. When forming glass with a small arc length and small radius, by adjusting the size of multiple independently adjustable arc-changing strokes in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism, the size of the non-effective arc-forming area and the effective arc-forming area for forming the target glass can be flexibly matched on the forming roller surface according to the arc length and radius of the target curved glass. This reduces the actual area used for glass bending and forming, ultimately resulting in a uniform arc shape. The arc length of the effective arc forming region differs from that of the central effective arc forming region due to the non-effective arc forming regions on both sides. This allows the central part of the forming roller surface to form an effective forming surface with a smaller radius and a uniform arc shape. By setting at least two adjustable arc-changing strokes in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism, this equipment can form more than three effective arc forming regions with different arc lengths. Combined with different degrees of lifting at both ends of the lower arc-changing mechanism, this allows for the formation of effective forming surfaces with different arc lengths and radii for glass forming in the central part of the forming roller surface. This results in more flexible adjustments and a wider variety of target curved glass surfaces. Furthermore, the arc-changing mechanism can also achieve full participation in uniform radius arc-changing forming, thus accommodating the forming of large-radius glass.
[0007] Furthermore, when the lower arc-forming mechanism is in a flattened state, the adjustable arc-forming stroke corresponding to the non-effective arc-forming area is less than the adjustable arc-forming stroke corresponding to the effective arc-forming area.
[0008] Its beneficial effects are: the adjustable arc travel in the non-effective arc region is less than that in the effective arc region. After the lower arc mechanism lifts and forms an arc, the non-effective arc region and the effective arc region can form different shapes. The effective arc region forms an effective forming surface with equal arcs, while the non-effective arc region forms a different shape from the effective forming region. In this case, the lifting arc mechanism can make the effective arc region form a smaller radius.
[0009] Furthermore, the adjustable arc travel corresponding to the non-effective arc region is 0.
[0010] Its beneficial effect is that this is a limit state. After the lower arc mechanism is lifted into an arc, the non-effective arc area forms a straight line. In this state, after lifting and changing the arc at both ends of the arc mechanism, the effective forming surface radius is smaller.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting limit component of the central arc-changing mechanism is a lifting connecting rod shaft, which is mounted on a lead screw. Both ends of the connecting rod are connected to a fixed connecting rod shaft and a lifting connecting rod shaft, respectively. At least one end of the connecting rod is a slotted hole. When the lower arc-changing mechanism is in a flattened state, the space between the slotted hole and the fixed connecting rod shaft and / or the lifting connecting rod shaft is the adjustable arc-changing stroke. The size of the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke is adjusted by adjusting the position of the lifting connecting rod shaft through the lead screw. Multiple lead screws in the central arc-changing mechanism are driven by multiple independent driving components, or all lead screws in the central arc-changing mechanism are driven centrally by one arc-adjusting motor.
[0012] Its beneficial effects are: it structurally limits the middle arc-changing mechanism of the lower arc-changing mechanism and further limits the adjustment method of the adjustable arc-changing stroke: when one arc-changing motor is used to centrally adjust the adjustable arc-changing stroke, the adjustment is convenient, and the middle arc-changing mechanism can be used as the minimum constant effective arc-forming area, so that the entire forming equipment takes into account both forming speed and forming capacity, and balances the forming capacity of the maximum arc length and minimum radius and the minimum arc length and minimum radius; when multiple driving components are used to drive separately, the effect of centralized driving can also be achieved through the synchronous adjustment of multiple driving components.
[0013] Furthermore, the linkage limiting mechanism of the central arc-changing mechanism also includes multiple lifting sliders. The two ends of the linkage are round holes and are respectively connected to the fixed linkage shaft and the lifting slider. The lifting limiting component is a limiting ring. The limiting ring and the lifting slider are respectively set on the same guide. The lifting slider can slide along the length direction of the guide, and the limiting ring can move along the length direction of the guide to adjust its position. When the lower arc-changing mechanism is in the flattened state, the distance between the lifting slider and the limiting ring is the adjustable arc-changing stroke. The size of the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke is adjusted by adjusting the position of the limiting ring. All adjustable arc-changing strokes of the central arc-changing mechanism are centrally adjusted by one arc-adjusting motor, or all adjustable arc-changing strokes are independently adjusted by multiple independent driving components.
[0014] Its beneficial effects are: it provides an alternative structure for the central arc-changing mechanism, which uses the same linkage limiting mechanism as the side arc-changing mechanism, and further limits the adjustment method of the adjustable arc-changing stroke: when the same arc-changing motor is used to centrally adjust the adjustable arc-changing stroke, the adjustment is convenient, and the central arc-changing mechanism can be used as the minimum constant effective arc-forming area, allowing the entire molding equipment to take into account both molding speed and molding capacity, and to balance the molding capacity of the maximum arc length and minimum radius and the minimum arc length and minimum radius; when multiple independent driving components are used to drive separately, the effect of centralized driving can also be achieved through the synchronous adjustment of multiple independent driving components.
[0015] Furthermore, the limiting ring is a threaded retaining ring, the guide member is a guide rod having an optical axis section and a threaded section, the threaded retaining ring is connected to the threaded section of the guide rod, and the lifting slider is connected to the optical axis section of the guide rod; or, the limiting ring is a retaining ring portion disposed on an external spline retaining ring, the guide member is a lead screw, the external spline retaining ring is connected to the lead screw, and the lifting slider is slidably disposed on the external spline portion of the external spline retaining ring.
[0016] Its beneficial effect is that it provides two ways to set the limit ring, and implementers can choose to use them according to the actual situation.
[0017] Furthermore, the fixed connecting rod shaft and the lifting limit component are alternately arranged in different chain plate units; or, the fixed connecting rod shaft and the lifting limit component are simultaneously arranged in the same chain plate unit.
[0018] Its beneficial effects are: when the fixed connecting rod shaft and the lifting limit component are in different chain plate units, the connecting rods are arranged in a W-shape after connection. This structural arrangement is simple, and the lower arc mechanism is easy and quick to adjust; when the fixed connecting rod shaft and the lifting limit component are set one-to-one in the same chain plate unit, the connecting rods are arranged in a unidirectional manner after connection. Each chain plate unit has an adjustable arc stroke, more adjustable nodes, and more precise arc control adjustment.
[0019] Furthermore, in the central arc-changing mechanism, the linkage limiting mechanism also includes a driven linkage shaft and a fixed shaft. The lifting limiting component and the fixed shaft, as well as the driven linkage shaft and the fixed linkage shaft, are respectively arranged in groups and alternately on different chain plate units. The driven linkage shaft and the fixed shaft are connected by a linkage.
[0020] Its beneficial effects are: the adjacent chain plate units of the central arc-changing mechanism can form a double-link cross arrangement, and the arc-changing mechanism presents synchronous arc changing and smoother arc changing process during the process of changing from straight to the target arc, resulting in higher glass forming precision. It is especially suitable for large glass sheets and large equipment, and can realize glass bending as quickly as possible before the glass temperature drops, reducing the impact of temperature drop on glass forming.
[0021] Furthermore, at least 5 of the chain plate units corresponding to the effective arc-forming region are toothed chain plates.
[0022] Its beneficial effects are: the toothed chain plate setting allows the arc-changing mechanism in the corresponding area to maintain a more precise equal radius arc during the arc-forming process, resulting in better process accuracy, better final forming accuracy, and forming the smallest constant arc-forming area, thus balancing forming speed, forming capacity, and forming accuracy.
[0023] Furthermore, the chain plate unit includes one chain plate or two chain plates; when the chain plate unit includes one chain plate, the link limiting mechanism is located on the outside or lower part of the chain plate unit; when the chain plate unit includes two chain plates, the link limiting mechanism is located between the two chain plates.
[0024] Its beneficial effect is that it meets the requirements for roller conveyor installation in different application scenarios.
[0025] Furthermore, the roller conveyor is a rigid shaft roller conveyor, and the two ends of multiple rigid shaft roller conveyors are respectively connected to the lower arc-changing mechanism on the same side. The multiple rigid shaft roller conveyors are driven by lifting the lower arc-changing mechanism to fit the forming roller conveyor surface.
[0026] Its beneficial effect is that the forming equipment can be used in glass rigid axis bending equipment.
[0027] Furthermore, the roller conveyor is a flexible shaft roller conveyor, and multiple support tubes are arranged between the two lower arc-changing mechanisms. Flexible shaft roller conveyors and elastic elements for supporting the flexible shaft roller conveyors are arranged in parallel on the support tubes. Multiple lifting mechanisms are connected to the elastic elements. By lifting the lower arc-changing mechanisms and controlling the actions of the multiple lifting mechanisms, the multiple flexible shaft roller conveyors are driven to fit the forming roller conveyor surface.
[0028] Its beneficial effects are: the forming equipment can be used in glass flexible shaft bending equipment and for glass hyperboloid bending forming.
[0029] Furthermore, the roller conveyor is a flexible shaft roller conveyor, and multiple support tubes are arranged between the two lower arc-changing mechanisms. The multiple flexible shaft roller conveyors are arranged perpendicular to the support tubes. The multiple flexible shaft roller conveyors are driven by the lower arc-changing mechanism to fit the forming roller conveyor surface.
[0030] Its beneficial effects are: the forming equipment can be used in the flexible shaft bending equipment of glass, and for the single-curved surface bending forming of glass.
[0031] Furthermore, the molding equipment also includes an upper arc-changing mechanism, which is located above the lower arc-changing mechanism.
[0032] The beneficial effects of this utility model include: by adjusting the adjustable arc stroke size on the central arc-changing mechanism and the side arc-changing mechanism, the arc length of the effective arc-forming area and the ineffective arc-forming area after arc formation can be adjusted to offset each other, thereby simultaneously meeting the needs of forming large-radius and small-radius glass on one forming machine.
[0033] Based on its basic design concept, this utility model allows for structural adjustments to be made according to different scenarios, thereby enabling glass bending and forming in the following scenarios: (1) single-curved surface bending, with the glass bending direction parallel to the conveying direction; (2) single-curved surface bending, with the glass bending direction perpendicular to the conveying direction; and (3) double-curved surface bending, where the glass can be bent both in the conveying direction and perpendicular to the conveying direction. This satisfies the forming requirements of different scenarios and expands the applicability of this utility model. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, but this should not be construed as limiting the present invention in any way.
[0036] Example 1 like Figure 2 As shown, a multifunctional curved glass forming device includes two lower arc-changing mechanisms 100 and multiple roller tracks. Both ends of the lower arc-changing mechanisms 100 are connected to lifting arc-forming mechanisms. Lifting the lower arc-changing mechanisms drives the multiple roller tracks to fit and form a forming roller track surface for bending glass. In this example, the roller tracks are rigid shaft roller tracks 200. Both ends of the multiple rigid shaft roller tracks 200 are respectively connected to the lower arc-changing mechanisms 100 on the same side. Lifting the lower arc-changing mechanisms drives the multiple rigid shaft roller tracks 200 to fit the forming roller track surface.
[0037] See attached document Figure 3-9As shown, the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 includes a chain plate unit 1 and a connecting rod limiting mechanism 2. There are multiple chain plate units 1, which are staggered by pins. The connecting rod limiting mechanism 2 includes a fixed connecting rod shaft 3, a lifting limiting component, and a connecting rod 4. There are multiple fixed connecting rod shafts 3, lifting limiting components, and connecting rods 4. Multiple fixed connecting rod shafts 3 are set on different chain plate units 1, and multiple lifting limiting components are set on different chain plate units 1. The connecting rod limiting mechanism 2 has multiple adjustable arc-changing strokes 7. Each lifting limiting component corresponds to one adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. The size of the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 is adjusted by raising and lowering the lifting limiting component. The adjustable arc stroke 7 determines the degree of movement of the connecting rod 4 when the lower arc mechanism 100 is lifted into an arc, thereby determining the deflectable angle between the two chain plate units 1 connected by the connecting rod 4 around the pin shaft when lifting and changing the arc. The size of the deflectable angle corresponding to the multiple adjustable arc strokes determines the shape of the forming roller surface fitted by the multiple hard shaft rollers 200 corresponding to the multiple chain plate units 1.
[0038] like Figure 9 As shown, the forming roller surface is divided into an effective arc forming area 400 and non-effective arc forming areas 500 located on both sides of the effective arc forming area 400. The effective arc forming area 400 is used to bend the glass into an arc.
[0039] The lower arc-changing mechanism 100 includes a central arc-changing mechanism 101 and two side arc-changing mechanisms 102 on both sides. The side arc-changing mechanism 102 is an adjustable arc-changing mechanism. The adjustable arc-changing mechanism is used to adjust the size of the arc length of the effective arc-forming area 400 in the forming roller surface, that is, to adjust the range covered by the effective arc-forming area 400 in the length direction.
[0040] like Figure 2 , 6 As shown in Figure 7, the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2 in the side arc-changing mechanism 102, which is an adjustable arc-changing mechanism, also includes multiple lifting sliders 5. The lifting limiting component is an annular retaining ring portion 601 located below the outer spline retaining ring 6. The outer spline retaining ring 6 has a cylindrical structure, with a spline portion above the retaining ring portion 601. The outer spline retaining ring 6 is connected to the lead screw 8. The lifting slider 5 is provided with an internal spline, and therefore can be slidably connected to the spline portion of the outer spline retaining ring 6. When the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 is in a flattened state, the distance between the retaining ring portion 601 of the outer spline retaining ring 6 and the lifting slider 5 is adjusted by the lead screw 8. This distance is the adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. The two ends of the connecting rod 4 are respectively connected to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting slider 5. In this example, both ends of the connecting rod 4 are round holes. Alternatively, the two ends of the connecting rod 4 can also be configured as one end with a strip hole and the other end with a round hole.
[0041] Specifically, the side arc-changing mechanism 102 includes multiple fixed connecting rod shafts 3, external spline retaining rings 6, lifting sliders 5, and connecting rods 4 within the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2. Multiple fixed connecting rod shafts 3 are mounted on different chain plate units 1, and multiple external spline retaining rings 6 are mounted on different chain plate units 1. The external spline retaining rings 6 and lifting sliders 5 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. The lifting slider 5 can slide up and down along the external spline retaining ring 6, and the external spline retaining ring 6 can move up and down along the lead screw 8 for position adjustment. The adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 is adjusted by adjusting the position of the external spline retaining ring 6 via the lead screw 8. A driving component is connected to the lead screw 8, which drives the lead screw 8 to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the connected external spline retaining ring 6 and thus adjusting the size of the adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. The driving component is an arc-adjusting motor.
[0042] Preferably, in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism, at least two of the adjustable arc-changing strokes are independently adjustable. These independently adjustable arc-changing strokes are adjusted by independent drive components. Each independent drive component adjusts the position of the external spline retaining ring 6 on the connected lead screw one-to-one, thereby independently adjusting the size of the corresponding independently adjustable arc-changing stroke. The adjustable arc-changing stroke in the middle arc-changing mechanism can be centrally adjusted by a single arc-changing motor via a transmission mechanism. The flexible selection of the non-effective arc-forming region 500 and the effective arc-forming region 400 is achieved through the independent adjustment of multiple independently adjustable arc-changing strokes.
[0043] In this embodiment, the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting slider 5 of the side arc-changing mechanism 102 are alternately arranged on different chain plate units 1. The two ends of the connecting rod 4 are respectively connected to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting slider 5 on two adjacent chain plate units 1. That is, a single connecting rod is set between two adjacent chain plate units 1, so that multiple connecting rods 4 form a W-shaped arrangement, such as Figure 6 As shown in the figure. This structural arrangement is simple in structure and convenient and quick to use and adjust.
[0044] The adjustable arc-changing mechanism has 2, 8, or 16 independently adjustable arc-changing strokes, which can be flexibly designed according to design requirements. By setting more than 2 independently adjustable arc-changing strokes in the adjustable arc-changing mechanism, the equipment can form more than 3 effective arc-forming areas with different arc lengths. With the different degrees of lifting at both ends of the lower arc-changing mechanism, the middle of the forming roller surface can form effective forming surfaces with different arc lengths and radii for glass forming, making the adjustment more flexible and adaptable to a wider variety of target curved glass surfaces. This forming equipment features independently adjustable arc-changing strokes on both sides of the lower arc-changing mechanism. The position of the limiting rings is adjusted via independent drive components, thereby adjusting the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke size. When forming glass with small arc lengths and small radii, the adjustment of multiple independently adjustable arc-changing strokes within the mechanism allows for flexible matching of the non-effective arc-forming area and the effective arc-forming area for forming the target glass on the forming roller surface, based on the arc length and radius of the target curved glass. This reduces the arc length of the effective arc-forming area actually used for glass bending, ultimately forming a uniform arc shape. The non-effective arc-forming areas on both sides present a different shape than the effective arc-forming area in the center, resulting in a smaller radius uniform arc-forming effective forming surface in the center of the forming roller surface. Furthermore, the arc-changing mechanism can also achieve full participation in uniform radius arc-changing forming, thus accommodating the forming of large-radius glass.
[0045] like Figure 3 , 4 As shown in Figure 5, the lifting limit component of the central arc-changing mechanism 101 is a lifting connecting rod shaft 9. The two ends of the connecting rod 4 are respectively connected to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9. At least one end of the connecting rod 4 has a slot. The lifting connecting rod shaft 9 is mounted on the lead screw 8. The adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 is the space between the slot 11 of the connecting rod 4 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 (e.g., ...). Figure 8 (As shown). A driving component is connected to the lead screw 8, which drives the lead screw 8 to rotate, thereby adjusting the position of the connected lifting linkage shaft 9 and thus adjusting the size of the corresponding adjustable arc stroke 7. The driving component is an arc-adjusting motor.
[0046] Preferably, the end of the connecting rod 4 used to connect to the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 is a slotted hole, and the end of the connecting rod 4 used to connect to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 is a round hole. This arrangement is more advantageous in terms of structural layout and will not interfere with the frame after the lower arc-changing mechanism is flattened. Alternatively, the position of the slotted hole on the connecting rod 4 can be reversed, such as the end connected to the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 being a round hole and the end connected to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 being a slotted hole. In other embodiments, both ends of the connecting rod 4 can also be provided as slotted holes.
[0047] In this embodiment, in the central arc-changing mechanism 101, the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 are alternately arranged on different chain plate units 1. The two ends of the connecting rod 4 are respectively connected to the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 on two adjacent chain plate units 1. That is, the two adjacent chain plate units 1 are arranged as a single connecting rod, so that multiple connecting rods 4 form a W-shaped arrangement.
[0048] In other embodiments, alternatively, when the fixed connecting rod shaft and the lifting connecting rod shaft are simultaneously set in the same chain plate unit, a single connecting rod is set between two adjacent chain plate units, and multiple connecting rods 4 are arranged in a unidirectional manner. In this case, each chain plate unit 1 in the central arc-changing mechanism 101 corresponds to one lifting connecting rod shaft 9, and all of them are adjustable. The central arc-changing mechanism 101 has more adjustable nodes, and the arc control adjustment is more precise.
[0049] In this embodiment, all adjustable arc strokes 7 of the central arc-changing mechanism 101 share one arc-changing motor and are centrally adjusted through a transmission mechanism. The transmission mechanism that can be used includes, but is not limited to, chain drive mechanism and synchronous belt drive mechanism, to keep the synchronous adjustment and the stroke size during adjustment always equal, so as to achieve a constant minimum effective arc area 400 setting, so that the entire molding equipment takes into account molding speed and molding capacity, and balances the molding capacity of maximum arc length, minimum radius and minimum arc length, minimum radius. The purpose of setting a constant minimum effective arc forming area 400 is to consider the minimum arc length and minimum radius of the target curved glass when the forming roller surface is fixed. The constant minimum effective arc forming area 400 can meet the glass forming of the target curved surface with the minimum arc length and minimum radius. For glass with any arc length and any radius, the rigid shaft rollers corresponding to the constant minimum effective arc forming area 400 will all participate and form concentric circles. This method is designed to take into account both forming speed and forming capacity, and to balance the forming capacity of the maximum arc length and minimum radius and the minimum arc length and minimum radius. Especially for large equipment, when the total arc length of the forming roller surface is fixed, the smaller the arc length of the glass with the minimum radius and minimum arc length that can be formed, the larger the non-effective arc forming area 500 on both sides will be. If large equipment is used to form small arc length and small radius glass, the lifting height of the end of the arc changing mechanism will be higher during arc forming, the forming speed of the arc changing mechanism driving multiple rigid shaft rollers will be slower, and the design height of the equipment will be higher, which is not conducive to equipment design and increases the risk. In addition, the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 in this embodiment can also drive multiple rigid shaft rollers 200 to participate in the forming of equal radius arc-changing, so as to take into account the forming of large radius glass.
[0050] In other embodiments, the central arc-changing mechanism 101 may not share a single arc-adjusting motor, but may correspond to multiple arc-adjusting motors as needed. However, maintaining synchronous adjustment of these multiple motors ensures that the adjusted adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 is identical, thus achieving a constant minimum effective arc-forming area. Specifically, the lead screw of the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2 in the central arc-changing mechanism is connected one-to-one with the arc-adjusting motor. The arc-adjusting motor drives the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 up and down via the lead screw 8 to adjust the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. In this case, the adjustable arc-changing stroke adjusted by the corresponding arc-adjusting motor is an independent adjustable arc-changing stroke. The independent adjustment of multiple independent adjustable arc-changing strokes allows for flexible selection between the ineffective and effective arc-forming areas.
[0051] It should be noted that the central arc-changing mechanism 101 includes a central support 300. The central support 300 is also connected to the chain plate units 1 on both sides by pins. However, the central support 300 and the chain plate unit 1 may or may not be connected by a link depending on the situation.
[0052] It should be noted that the "adjustable arc stroke" mentioned in this utility model refers to the maximum stroke that the connecting rod can move when the lower arc mechanism 100 moves from the flattened state to the maximum position. Specifically, in this embodiment, for the middle arc mechanism 101, the "adjustable arc stroke" is the maximum distance between the slot 11 of the connecting rod 4 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 when the lower arc mechanism is flattened and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 has completed its position adjustment; for the side arc mechanism 102, the "adjustable arc stroke" is the maximum distance between the lifting slider 5 and the retaining ring portion 601 of the outer spline retaining ring 6 when the lower arc mechanism 100 is flattened and the outer spline retaining ring 6 has completed its position adjustment.
[0053] The method of using the glass forming equipment described in this embodiment includes the following steps: S1, flexibly determine the boundary points of the effective arc-forming region 400 that matches the target glass based on the arc length and radius of the target glass; S2, adjust all adjustable arc strokes 7 of the linkage limit mechanism 2, and the adjusted adjustable arc stroke 7 of the non-effective arc forming area 500 is less than the adjustable arc stroke 7 in the effective arc forming area 400. S3, the lifting and lowering of the arc-forming mechanism 100 drives multiple rigid shaft rollers 200 to fit the forming roller surface, ultimately achieving an effective arc-forming area 400 in the middle of the forming roller surface to form an effective forming curved surface and drive glass forming. The non-effective arc-forming areas 500 on both sides have a different shape from the effective forming area. In this case, the lifting and lowering of the arc-forming mechanism can allow the effective arc-forming area to form a smaller radius. The shape different from the effective forming area can be a forming surface with a radius larger than the radius of the effective forming curved surface or other non-curved shapes.
[0054] Furthermore, in step S2, the adjustable arc travel within the non-effective arc forming area 500 is adjusted to 0; in step S3, the two ends of the lower arc forming mechanism 100 are gradually pulled up to form an arc, ultimately achieving a planar shape for the non-effective arc forming areas 500 on both sides of the lower arc forming mechanism 100, and a uniform arc forming surface for the effective arc forming area 400 in the middle. In this state, pulling up and arcing the two ends of the lower arc forming mechanism results in a smaller effective forming surface radius.
[0055] The adjustment method of setting the adjustable arc stroke 7 to 0 and the principle of the function of the non-effective arc region 500 are as follows: The adjustable arc stroke 7 determines the degree of movement of the connecting rod 4 when the arc mechanism is lifted into an arc, thereby determining the deflectable angle between the two chain plate units 1 connected by the connecting rod 4 when lifting into an arc. The size of the deflectable angle determines the shape of the forming roller surface fitted by the multiple hard shaft rollers corresponding to the chain plate unit 1.
[0056] Adjustment method for adjusting the adjustable arc stroke 7 to 0: When the lower arc mechanism is flat, adjust the position of the outer spline retaining ring 6 through the lead screw 8 so that the retaining ring part of the outer spline retaining ring 6 is below the lifting slider 5 and the retaining ring part of the outer spline retaining ring 6 is in close contact with the lifting slider 5. When the two ends of the lower arc mechanism are lifted and the arc is changed, the two adjacent chain plate units 1 swing around the pin shaft. The deflection angle between the two chain plate units 1 will tend to increase. However, the lifting slider 5 connected to the upper end of the connecting rod 4 corresponding to the adjustable arc stroke 7 cannot move down due to the obstruction of the outer spline retaining ring 6, and the connecting rod 4 is in a stuck state. Therefore, by rotating the lead screw 8 to adjust the position of the outer spline retaining ring 6 so that it is in close contact with the lifting slider 5, the corresponding adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 is adjusted to 0. The arc-changing mechanism in the corresponding area of the chain plate unit with multiple adjustable arc-changing strokes of 0 is in a straight line shape. The non-effective arc-forming area formed by the arc-changing mechanism in the corresponding area driving multiple hard shaft rollers is in a planar shape. In this state, the two ends of the arc-changing mechanism are lifted and the arc-changing is performed, resulting in a smaller effective forming surface radius.
[0057] In this embodiment, the side arc-changing mechanism 102 adopts an adjustable arc-changing mechanism. The adjustable arc-changing mechanism can flexibly adjust the multiple adjustable arc-changing strokes 7 inside according to the range of the effective arc-forming area 400, so that the adjustable arc-changing strokes 7 of the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 and the adjustable arc-changing strokes 7 of some adjustable arc-changing mechanisms in the effective arc-forming area 400 are coordinated and are greater than the adjustable arc-changing strokes 7 of some adjustable arc-changing mechanisms in the non-effective arc-forming area 500. By controlling the degree of arc-changing achieved by the adjustable arc-changing strokes 7 corresponding to different areas of the arc-changing mechanism, the shape of the entire forming roller surface, the size and radius of the effective arc-forming area 400 and the non-effective arc-forming area 500 are flexibly divided.
[0058] The purpose of “coordinating the size of the adjustable arc stroke 7 of the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 and the adjustable arc stroke 7 of the partial adjustable arc-changing mechanism within the effective arc-forming area 400” is to ensure that after adjusting the adjustable arc stroke 7, the chain plate unit 1 within the effective arc-forming area 400 forms an arc of equal radius. The specific operation is as follows: (1) When the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 and the partial adjustable arc-changing mechanism within the effective arc-forming area 400 have the same structure as the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2, the size of their corresponding adjustable arc stroke 7 is equal; when the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 and the partial adjustable arc-changing mechanism within the effective arc-forming area 400 have different structures as the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2, the adjustable arc stroke 7 corresponding to the different structures may not be completely equal, and the optimal adjustment method of the adjustable arc stroke 7 needs to be obtained through verification.
[0059] Example 2 In the side-arc-changing mechanism of Embodiment 1, the lifting and limiting component is an external spline retaining ring. In this embodiment, as... Figure 10 As shown, in the side-mounted arc-changing mechanism, the lifting and limiting component is a threaded retaining ring 12, and a guide rod 13 is used instead of the lead screw in Embodiment 1. The lower section of the guide rod 13 is provided with an external thread for installing the threaded retaining ring 12, and the upper section of the guide rod 13 is provided with an optical axis for the lifting slider 5 to slide up and down. The distance between the lifting slider 5 and the threaded retaining ring 12 is the adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. By adjusting the position of the threaded retaining ring 12 on the guide rod 13, the size of the adjustable arc-changing stroke 7 between the lifting slider 5 and the threaded retaining ring 12 is adjusted.
[0060] Based on the explanation of "adjustable arc stroke" in Embodiment 1, the "adjustable arc stroke" in this embodiment specifically refers to the maximum distance between the lifting slider 5 and the threaded retaining ring 12 when the lower arc mechanism is in a flattened state.
[0061] Example 3 In this embodiment, the side arc changing mechanism 102 in the lower arc changing mechanism is the same as in Embodiment 1, and the middle arc changing mechanism 101 adopts the link limiting mechanism as described in the side arc changing mechanism of Embodiment 1 or Embodiment 2.
[0062] In this embodiment, all adjustable arc strokes 7 of the central arc-changing mechanism 101 are adjusted by a single arc-changing motor, rather than each adjustable arc stroke 7 using a separate arc-changing motor.
[0063] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the central arc-changing mechanism 101 may not share a single arc-adjusting motor, but may correspond to multiple arc-adjusting motors as needed, while maintaining synchronous adjustment and ensuring that the adjusted adjustable arc-changing stroke is the same, thus achieving a constant minimum effective arc-forming area. For example, each adjustable arc-changing stroke may be equipped with an independent arc-adjusting motor.
[0064] In other embodiments, in the central arc-changing mechanism 101, adjacent chain plate units 1 employ a cross-link structure. For example... Figure 11 As shown, specifically, the central arc-changing mechanism 101 also includes a driven connecting rod shaft and a fixed shaft 14. The lifting connecting rod shaft 9 and the fixed shaft 14 form one group, and the driven connecting rod shaft and the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 form another group. These two groups are alternately arranged in different chain plate units 1. A connecting rod 4 is also provided between the driven connecting rod shaft and the fixed shaft 14, forming a cross structure with the connecting rod connecting the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9. In this way, two adjacent chain plate units 1 are connected by two cross connecting rods 4. Preferably, the two ends of the connecting rod 4, which is connected to the driven connecting rod shaft and the fixed shaft 14 respectively, are round holes and / or strip holes. The middle arc-changing mechanism 101 of the lower arc-changing mechanism is a link limiting mechanism with a double-link cross arrangement, and the side arc-changing mechanism 102 is an adjustable arc-changing mechanism with a single-link W-shaped arrangement as described in Embodiment 1 or a single-link unidirectional arrangement as described in this embodiment. This is more suitable for the process scenario where the glass gradually forms as the lower arc-changing mechanism changes arc. The middle cross double-link structure presents synchronous arc changing and a smoother arc changing process from a straight arc to the target arc shape, resulting in higher glass forming accuracy. It is particularly suitable for large sheets of glass and large equipment, enabling glass bending as quickly as possible before the glass temperature drops, reducing the impact of temperature drop on glass forming. Although the cross double-link structure of the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 does not have the same process forming accuracy as the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 in Embodiment 3, it can still improve the process forming accuracy to a certain extent, and the final arc forming accuracy is good, and the structure is more stable. The side arc-changing mechanism 102 adopts a non-cross double-link structure, which makes the selection and adjustment of the non-effective arc forming area 500 more convenient and the arc changing more convenient.
[0065] Example 4 like Figure 12 , 13 As shown, the difference between this embodiment and Embodiment 1 is that in this embodiment, in the side arc-changing mechanism 102, the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9 are respectively arranged on the same chain plate unit 1. Adjacent chain plate units are connected by a single connecting rod between the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting slider, forming a unidirectional arrangement of connecting rods 4. The chain plate unit 1 of the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 is simultaneously provided with the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9. Adjacent chain plate units 1 are connected by a single connecting rod between the fixed connecting rod shaft 3 and the lifting connecting rod shaft 9, which can also form a unidirectional arrangement of connecting rods 4. The connecting rods 4 of the two side arc-changing mechanisms located on both sides of the middle support 300 of the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 have opposite inclination directions. And the connecting rods in the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 and the side arc-changing mechanism 102 located on the same side of the middle support have the same inclination direction.
[0066] In the side arc-changing mechanism 102, each chain plate unit 1 corresponds to an independently adjustable arc-changing stroke 7. The side arc-changing mechanism 102 has more adjustable nodes and more precise arc control adjustment, which can make the arc length of the effective arc-forming area 400 in the middle more flexibly match the arc length of the target glass.
[0067] Example 5 In the above embodiments, each chain plate unit 1 includes two chain plates, and the link limiting mechanism 2 is disposed between the two chain plates. Figure 14 As shown, unlike any of the above embodiments, in this embodiment, each chain plate unit 1 includes one chain plate 1-1, and the link limiting mechanism 2 is disposed on the outside of the chain plate 1-1 or on the lower part of the chain plate 1-1.
[0068] In the above embodiment, the linkage limiting mechanism 2 is located between two chain plates. Therefore, linkages 4 are respectively provided at both ends of the lifting linkage shaft 9 or at both ends of the lifting slider 5. In this embodiment, taking the lifting slider 5 as an example, the two linkages 4 connected to the lifting slider 5 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the same end of the lifting slider about the lifting slider.
[0069] In other embodiments, the side arc-changing mechanism 102 and the middle arc-changing mechanism 101 can adopt a structure similar to the linkage limiting mechanism 2 in any of the above embodiments, the difference being that they employ... Figure 14 The connecting rods are arranged on one side as shown.
[0070] Example 6 In any of the above embodiments, the chain plate of the chain plate unit 1 is a toothless chain plate, and the chain plates are connected only by pins. The chain plates cannot constrain the arc-changing process. The arc-changing mechanism and the forming roller surface formed by the flexible shaft roller driven by the arc-changing mechanism are constrained by the linkage limiting mechanism.
[0071] Unlike any of the above embodiments, in this example, at least five chain plate units in the effective arc-forming area are toothed chain plates. The toothed chain plates refer to the chain plates with teeth on the left and / or right sides, which can be meshed with each other. The toothed chain plates allow the arc-changing mechanism in the corresponding area to maintain a more precise equal radius arc during the arc-forming process, resulting in better process accuracy and better final forming accuracy. This forms the smallest constant arc-forming area, which can further improve the forming accuracy of the forming roller surface while taking into account the forming speed and forming capacity mentioned above.
[0072] Specifically, such as Figure 15As shown, the chain plate unit 1 in the lower arc-forming mechanism is arranged in a staggered double row. There are 7 toothed chain plates 1-2 in the effective arc-forming area 400, including 3 double-sided toothed chain plates 1-21 and 4 single-sided toothed chain plates 1-22. Alternatively, one double-sided toothed chain plate 1-21 and four single-sided toothed chain plates 1-22 can be provided. Double-sided toothed chain plates refer to chain plates with teeth on both the left and right sides, while single-sided toothed chain plates refer to chain plates with teeth on either the left or right side.
[0073] It should be noted that the chain plates in the non-effective arc-forming area are toothless chain plates, and toothed chain plates cannot be selected.
[0074] Example 7 Unlike any of the above embodiments, as Figure 16 , 17 As shown, in this embodiment, the roller conveyor is a flexible shaft roller conveyor 16. Multiple support tubes 15 are arranged between the two lower arc-changing mechanisms 100. Multiple flexible shaft roller conveyors 16 are vertically arranged on the support tubes 15. By lifting the lower arc-changing mechanism 100, the multiple flexible shaft roller conveyors 16 vertically arranged on the support tubes 15 are bent to fit the forming roller conveyor surface. This embodiment is suitable for forming single-curved glass, and the glass bending direction is perpendicular to the glass conveying direction.
[0075] Specifically, such as Figure 16 , 17 As shown, when the arc-changing mechanism 100 is set at the end of the support tube 15, the linkage limiting mechanism is set on the outside of the chain plate, or the outside of the support tube 15.
[0076] In other embodiments, when the target glass is long, the length of the support tube 15 is also long. To prevent the support tube 15 from becoming too long and deforming in the middle, thus affecting the arc forming accuracy of the supported flexible shaft roller 16, the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 is set at a non-end position of the support tube 15, such as... Figure 18 As shown, the support tube 15 passes through the chain plate of the lower arc-changing mechanism 100, and the connecting rod limiting mechanism 2 is located at the lower part of the chain plate.
[0077] Example 8 The difference between this embodiment and embodiments 1-6 is that, for example Figure 19 As shown, the roller conveyor is a flexible shaft roller conveyor 16. Multiple support tubes 15 are arranged between the two lower arc-changing mechanisms 100. The flexible shaft roller conveyor 16 is arranged in parallel on the support tubes 15. Multiple lifting mechanisms 17 are arranged at intervals along the length of each support tube 15. The lifting mechanism 17 is connected to the elastic element 18 supporting the flexible shaft roller conveyor 16. When the multiple lifting mechanisms 17 lift to different heights, they can control the corresponding flexible shaft roller conveyor 16 to bend into an arc. The lifting mechanism 17 can be a screw mechanism driven by a motor.
[0078] During glass forming, the lower arc-changing mechanism 100 is used to raise multiple support tubes 15 to different heights, thereby forming an arc surface on the flexible shaft roller conveyor 16 in the glass conveying direction. The lifting mechanism 17, mounted on the support tubes 15, raises and lowers the flexible shaft roller conveyor 16, causing it to bend perpendicular to the glass conveying direction, thus fitting the forming roller surface. This method is suitable for forming hyperboloid glass or complex curved glass. The lower arc-changing mechanism can be any of the mechanisms described in the above embodiments.
[0079] Example 9 In the above embodiments, the adjustable arc mechanism 102 of the side arc mechanism uses a single link between the chain plate units 1 and the chain plate units 1. In this embodiment, the outermost chain plate units 1 of the adjustable arc mechanism are connected by double links, while the chain plate units 1 of the remaining adjustable arc mechanisms are connected by single links. This also achieves the function of adjusting the effective arc-forming area by 400 arc length.
[0080] Example 10 In the above embodiments, the adjustable arc stroke 7 of the adjustable arc mechanism used in the side arc mechanism 102 is an independent adjustable arc stroke. In this embodiment, the multiple outermost adjustable arc strokes 7 of the adjustable arc mechanism share one arc adjustment motor for unified adjustment, rather than each adjustable arc stroke 7 using a separate independent arc adjustment motor. The adjustable arc strokes 7 of the two adjustable arc mechanisms near the middle arc mechanism 101 are independent adjustable arc strokes, which can also achieve the function of adjusting the effective arc length of 400 arcs.
[0081] In other embodiments, the number and position of the independently adjustable arc stroke in the adjustable arc mechanism can be set differently depending on the type of arc length of the target glass to be pre-bent.
[0082] Example 11 The above embodiments all pertain to the structure of the lower arc-changing mechanism. In the glass forming equipment of this invention, an upper arc-changing mechanism located above the lower arc-changing mechanism is also included. The upper and lower arc-changing mechanisms are basically the same in terms of the linkage limiting mechanism and the chain plate unit, and can be selected according to needs. Regarding the selection of the arc-adjusting motor, the adjustable arc-changing stroke can be adjusted manually by using a lead screw instead of an arc-adjusting motor.
[0083] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model and are not intended to limit it. Those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the specific implementation of this utility model with reference to the above embodiments. Any modifications or equivalent substitutions that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this utility model are within the protection scope of the pending claims.
